8 Sword Qi and Departure

"That's enough"

With those words, Svaily collapsed to the ground. He's sweaty all over and breathing heavily. Past six months, he trained in "Formless Sword Art" by his mother and he finally can use Sword Qi with that he can be called a sword cultivator. Sword cultivators is feared existence in cultivation world because they can easily surpass their realm and kill their opponents. But only because someone can use sword qi that doesn't mean their sword training over. Above Sword Qi there is Sword Will to attain. Only the one blessed by heavens can attain Sword Will.

"Now you can use sword qi, I can reassure that you'll not be bullied outside. My little angel you should always be careful outside okay, there is all types of people."

"You can be at rest mom I'll be careful, but mom you shouldn't call me little angel anymore, look I am tall as you are." Saying that Svaily stood in front of his mother. Svaily indeed is long as Sonia and he looks like a teenager even though he's just 10 years old. Listening him Sonia just smiled and patted his head saying; "After thousands of years, you'll always be my little angel, now then sit and regulate your breathing."

After hearing what his mother said, Svaily sat down in lotus position and closed his eyes. After his first cultivation, he didn't cultivate much but he already broke through to 3rd grade Qi Refining Realm 2 weeks ago. Svaily sensed his qi and dantian while doing that he started to absorb qi around him to recover. Svaily now can look in his dantian with his sense, in his dantian there is 5 sigils and all 5 sigils connected to each other and looked like a five petaled flower. These 5 sigils are absorbing elemental properties of qi and the rest of qi which is unattributed and pure will flow with his qi veins. These 5 sigils also have another purpose which is strengthen Svailys body with their respective element. Svaily doesn't even need any other body tempering method to strengthen himself, his bodily cultivation realm always will be align with his qi cultivation realm. He just doesn't have any Soul cultivation method so he asked his father about any soul cultivation method but he said that his realm isn't enough for him to cultivate his soul.

"My little angel, you can have the sword that you used to train with yourself to go outside but as a sword cultivator you should find and earn your sword yourself. You can take it as a test and a mission for tempering."

"Okay mom, I'll search a sword for myself but shouldn't I look for a blacksmith to make me a sword?"

"No, You cannot do that, it's too early for you."

"Too early?"

"You just stepped in Way of Sword, until you find your unique way you cannot make, at least a real blacksmith forge you a sword."

Hearing that Svaily thought maybe after he attained his Sword Will, he can make a blacksmith to forge himself a sword.

"Now you understand this, Go and ask your father where you'll go for tempering, And don't forget to take food and water in your spatial ring."

"Okay mom, Goodbye"

In the clans main building Vega is eyes closed and sitting in lotus position then a servant came in and said "Patriarch, the young master is here."

"Okay, get him here." After taking order servant hurriedly went to outside, after a while Svaily came and said;

"Dad, I learned to use sword qi and my mom said I can go outside."

Hearing what his son said Vega is shocked a little bit but didn't showed on his face. He was shocked because he knows that in order to use sword qi, one should rigorously trained in Sword and have innate talent for swords too. But even for that at least it would take years to use sword qi. Not all people can use sword qi, nearly all cultivators use a weapon for themselves and most cultivators use sword but utmost they can be called swordsman rather than a sword cultivator. His son really made him proud.

"Then, You came to ask me, where to go, is that so?"

"Yes dad, I don't really know outside but you can choose somewhere for me to temper myself."

"You said, you can use sword qi right? Then I have a good place for you. There was someone they called Sword-saint born in Bluemoon Kingdom, he was a 6 star alchemist and a sword cultivator. After a deadly battle it's said that he has deadly wound that wouldn't heal and he would die in a 5 years. Seeing his dead is set in stone, he gone to his kingdom and left his inheritance there."

"Bluemoon Kingdom, dad is that kingdom under our rule?"

"No, It's not under rule of any great power, it's one of the kingdoms in Barrenlands."

Svaily understood, Barrenlands have very thin qi and a little resources, as there is no prospect to having such a place, no great power bother to rule over there. But for Svaily Barrenlands means also beginner village, there is no real powerhouse and threat. Going Barrenlands for his tempering is good and if he were to discover inheritance of Sword-saint it'll be the best for him.

"Dad is there any deadline for me to come back to clan?"

"There is none, when you want to come, you can come. Also you have Communication Crystal, if there is anything me and your mother can talk with you. And you'll have Chaid to accompany you, he can protect you from any mortal danger but he will not directly interfere with your tempering."

Hearing his fathers reply Svaily become eager to go, it is an adventure, it is a real adventure. He'll go anywhere he wants, he'll do anything he wants. He can also polish his super-arrogant young master skills during his adventures. Maybe even he can find one of a kind treasures like those protagonists in webnovels. But if anything he learned of those webnovels it's that one of a kind treasures makes you invincible.

"Then today I'm going to Barrenlands with Chaid, goodbye dad."

Saying that Svaily dash out from the room, seeing this Vega smiled shook his head thinking "Kids be kids, He is too eager to have some adventure."

At the exit of the Bain City, Svaily looking back to city, on his horse. After a while he turned his face towards Chaid who'll be with him in his adventures. Chaid is a black haired, burly man with a serious face and looking like someone in thirties. As for his cultivation realm, Svaily does not know and he couldn't sense neither. As for Svaily even before expelling his impurities he has a handsome face and silver hair which gave a sacred feeling with his handsome face, after his impurities got expelled, his sacredness came to a level which you could call divine.

"Let's go Chaid."

"Understood, Young Master."
